Data Collection and Usage
We collect and process personal data primarily to provide our photography services, manage client galleries, and handle invoicing. Personal data collected typically includes your name, email address, username, and password (created securely by us for your gallery access). For invoicing purposes, we collect your name and your billing address, in line with legal requirements for invoices in the UK. We may also collect other basic billing details if required by law or requested by you.

When visitors leave comments on the website, we collect the data displayed in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent string to assist spam detection.
An anonymised string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After comment approval, your profile picture is publicly visible alongside your comment.
